This is my blog about my experiences opening cases of sports cards. I have been selling on EBay since 2001. I have been selling sports cards since 1985. I love the hobby, and to me it is a hobby, not a business. My point of the blog is to let everyone know what cases I am opening and if I was able to profit from them. Hope everyone enjoys the blogs. If you are interested in purchasing any cards, let me know.

2010 Topps Tribute 2 Box Break

Broke open 2 boxes of 2010 Topps Tribute. Horrible QA on this product. In 2 boxes I got 2 damaged cards, 1 of which was a Auto Jersey of Clayton Kershaw. I had a base of Ty Cobb with the chrome peeling off. The packs were wedged into the box. For over $200 per box, I would think the packaging would be much better. Heck, A&G had better packaging.

Here are the pictures of the break.

Update on sales of this box:
I am at a loss of 67.61% right now. Still waiting on payment for a couple of cards that were recently sold. Just hoping at this point to not lose more than half my money spent.

We had horrible luck with the A&G boxes. The 3rd and 4th cards in a large percentage of packs were roller damaged. And we had a couple minis that were wedged in sideways. So that's a strong statement to say that A&G is better.And I'm completely with you two on the rivalry cards in this set. Absolutely no place for anything but baseball players in high end.--Jon

About Me

2011 was a rough start. Lost my dad and baseball card friend to cancer. Really thought about giving up the hobby, but my 11 year old son wants to keep it going. So in honor of my dad, The Chief, and my son I continue on in the baseball card world. Thanks guys.
